Chapter 38: The Benefactor

Shen Yue had already known that there were people behind him, but because he was not familiar with the capital, he had not yet left the people behind him. The person who followed was the guy from the pawnshop before, and she was a little worried that the gang would get rich. But in this capital, they should not be so unscrupulous.

Lin Jia was a little strange, why Shen Yue pulled herself to suddenly speed up, and was about to ask Shen Yue what was going on, when she suddenly remembered a voice behind her that made her extremely uncomfortable.

"This young lady, why are you in a hurry?" Shen Yue paused, and someone in front of him was already blocking his way. Lin Jia turned his head and looked at Zhao Gongzi with a light look in front of him, glared fiercely, and was about to walk away, but saw that someone had blocked his way.

"What are you going to do?" Shen Yue frowned and looked at Zhao Gongzi and the others. But listening to Shen Yue's words with a southern accent, Zhao Gongzi was happy, he came from the south, looking at the clothes on his body, he should have fled from the country, as long as he was a foreigner, it would be easy to do. Looking at Lin Jia's appearance, Wang Ming was also distracted for a while, he hadn't seen a beautiful woman before, but the one in front of him was on par with the one in Luoxian Tower.

"This young lady is disturbed, I heard that you have a sword in your hand, I don't know if you can transfer it intentionally?" Wang Ming said.

Shen Yue glanced Wang Ming up and down, and said coldly, "We don't sell swords. ”

"If you don't sell swords, why are you running a pawnshop? Do you have fun with shabu-shabu? Zhao Gongzi glanced at Lin Jiadao.

"I guess there is some misunderstanding, we are just inquiring about people, and we have no intention of selling swords." Shen Yue tightened the sword in his hand, worried that they would have some means to disadvantage him.

"It's really a strange anecdote, ask people in the pawnshop, did you use this sword once?" Zhao Gongzi smiled: "Girl, if the price is not suitable, just say it, there is no need to find such a reason." Young Master Ben lacks everything, but he is not short of money. After speaking, he winked at this Lin Jia.

Lin Jia felt the unscrupulousness in Zhao Gongzi's eyes, she turned around and didn't look in the direction of Zhao Gongzi, pulled Shen Yue and said, "Sister, let's go." ”

"There is something to discuss, I advise the two of you, if you want to get out of this West Market safely, you should sit down and talk to us. As soon as I'm happy, young master, I'll tell you the origin of this sword. Zhao Gongzi motioned to his subordinates to stop the two.

Shen Yue hesitated, but didn't make a move after all, this is the capital not Zhenjiang, at the feet of the Son of Heaven, these people don't dare to see what will happen to the two of them in front of everyone.

"Let's go and see what else we can't ask. It's inconvenient for me to do it in Beijing. Shen Yue said softly to Lin Jia. Lin Jia hesitated for a moment before reluctantly nodding.

Wang Ming leaned sideways and let the two into the restaurant on the side of the road, and as soon as they sat down in the private room, Zhao Gongzi looked at Lin Jia with a smile: "I don't know where the two of you came from?" ”

"Jiang Zhe, Zhao Gongzi, if you have something to say, don't talk about it, you said you know the origin of this sword." Shen Yue said bluntly.

Zhao Gongzi didn't know the origin of the sword, he just wanted to know Lin Jia's identity, and when he heard that the two of them were from Jiangsu and Zhejiang, he made up for it himself, and determined that the two were down-and-out rich families who had suffered disasters in the south, and it seemed that he could start with confidence.

"My son is not very proficient in the way of swords, but Wang Gongzi has some opinions, you can show him the sword." After listening to Zhao Gongzi's words, Shen Yue looked at Wang Ming suspiciously, and seeing that he did not deny it, he handed the sword to Wang Ming. After nodding his head and thanking him, Wang Ming took the sword and looked at it carefully, the scabbard was extremely ordinary, but there was an ancient seal script engraved on it. The sword body is out of the sheath, the sword light is cold, and at a glance, you can know that it is a good sword, Wang Ming saw that he was happy, his fingers flicked the sword body, and a sword sound came from the stabbing sound. Wang Ming was secretly happy in his heart, this sword was simply prepared for himself as a gift.

Looking up at Lin Jia and the others: "This sword should be made of meteoric iron, although it is not engraved with the name of the craftsman, it is also from the hands of a famous artist, there are very few meteorites in the world, few people have such weapons in their hands, if you want to inquire about the original owner of this sword, it is not too difficult to be careful, I take the liberty to ask, I don't know what clues the two have in addition to this sword." ”

Wang Ming is already planning to buy this sword, there are few meteoric irons in the world, most of them are famous flowers and owners, this sword style is so ordinary, he has never heard of it, and it is already an ownerless thing. If the other clues they said could prove this, they could have taken the sword.

Lin Jia shook his head and said helplessly: "Except for this sword, I only know that the master Xinlin's single name is a source character, the capital people's clan, and I don't know anything else." ”

"Lin Yuan?" Wang Ming frowned and always felt that the name was a little familiar, but he couldn't remember it for a while.

"What Lin Yuan, I haven't heard of it, this young lady shouldn't miss the original owner of this sword, it's just a broken sword, and it can't be eaten as a meal, it's better to follow this son and let you eat and drink spicy food." Zhao Gongzilang said with a smile.

Hearing Zhao Gongzi's words, Wang Ming and Shen Yue both frowned, this person was angry again, Wang Ming saw that Shen Yue's hand had already touched the hilt of the sword, and was about to pull Zhao Gongzi. Suddenly, I heard the door being pushed open.

Zhao Gongzi looked at the door with some irritation: "Who is so short-sighted?" I don't know if this son has~" The voice stopped abruptly, he knew the person at the door, he was the shopkeeper of Luoxian Tower, and now Li Xiandao, one of the most popular businessmen in Beijing.

Wang Ming hurriedly got up: "Mr. Li." Li Xiandao glanced at Wang Ming and nodded, this attitude made Wang Ming a little uncomfortable, once upon a time, the role of being slaughtered by others is now his father who has to be polite when he sees it.

glanced at Zhao Gongzi with disgust, this person is a well-known bully in Beijing, but because the family business is large, and there are many connections between the court and the central government, no one wants to offend him, looking at the two girls present, Li Xiandao arched his hand and said politely: "I don't know who the two are looking for, can you tell the old man." ”

He was passing outside before and overheard the word Lin Yuan, and subconsciously felt that he should ask. Shen Yue looked at Li Xiandao vigilantly, and seeing that his face was quite kind, he said, "It's a person from the capital named Lin Yuan." ”

"I wonder what else the two young ladies know?"

"My husband said that I met in the north. Do you know this gentleman? Lin Jia asked a little excitedly, as soon as the words fell, Wang Mingru was struck by lightning, and he felt that his name was familiar before, isn't this Lin Yuan the Duke of Yasukuni. I was a little sorry for how I was so unlucky. Li Xiandao was happy, he didn't come in in vain, first glared at Zhao Gongzi coldly, looked back at Lin Jia and said with a smile: "Don't look for the two of you, I'll take the two of you to find someone." ”

"Really?" Lin Jia said happily.

Li Xiandao nodded and looked at Zhao Gongzi: "In Xia Li Xiandao, the shopkeeper of Luoxian Tower." Young Master Lin's identity is a little special, you rush to the door, I'm afraid you won't be able to see it. I'll send someone to inform you, and we might be able to catch up." ”

When Zhao Gongzi heard this, his face turned pale in an instant, and he was in a big disaster, these two people were looking for the Duke of Yasukuni, and the only one in Beijing who could afford to be a young master was the Duke of Yasukuni.

"Please tell us, who is Lin Yuan?" Shen Yue was still not at ease, and looked at Li Xiandao, hoping that he would give him a clear answer.

Thinking that the two of them had been deceived in the past few days, Li Xiandao looked at Shen Yue and said, "I didn't lie to you below, go now, I may still meet in Luoxian Tower." ”

Shen Yue and Lin Jia had also heard the reputation of Luoxian Tower in Beijing in the past few days, and they hesitated and nodded and agreed to go with Li Xiandao. As soon as Shen Yue and the two went out, Li Xiandao looked at Zhao Gongzi coldly and said, "Follow." Wang Ming gritted his teeth, and pulled Zhao Gongzi, who was frozen on the side, to follow Li Xiandao towards Luoxian Tower.

Hearing Li Xiandao's Chang Sui say that he had an old man coming to Beijing, Lin Yuan was still a little curious, and he really didn't know about having an old man come to Beijing. Didn't you first write to tell me that you were going to come to the capital? Thinking that he had nothing to do, he planned to meet.

Lin Yuan didn't wait too long, Li Xiandao just walked into the restaurant, and then turned to Wang Ming and said, "You two wait down first, and then ask you to go up again." Zhao Gongzi just wanted to speak, but was pulled by Wang Ming, the situation is stronger than people, who let himself be unlucky and hit the muzzle.

Watching Li Xiandao lead Lin Jia and the two upstairs with a smile on his face, Zhao Gongzi muttered in a low voice, "Isn't it just luck to find a backer?" What is the spirit, those who don't know still think that he is the Duke of Yasukuni. Hearing Zhao Gongzi muttering on the side, Wang Ming frowned and quietly distanced himself from him. I was still wondering if I had offended those two girls.

"The two of you, please, Young Master Lin is inside." Nodding his head and thanking Li Xiandao, Lin Jia and the two walked in. Lin Yuan looked up and saw two young women, one of whom was very beautiful, giving people a feeling of brightness. Lin Yuan frowned, what kind of fame is this Li Xiandao.

While Lin Yuan was looking at the two of them, the two of them were also looking at Lin Yuan. Sure that he really didn't know these two people, Lin Yuan took the lead and asked, "I don't know why the two of you are looking for them?" ”

Lin Jia was a little nervous, he didn't know if this person was the person he was looking for, he took off the silk that wrapped the sword, and before he could speak, he saw Lin Yuan's eyes suddenly light up.

"Where did you get this sword?" Lin Yuan asked.

"Childe knows this sword?" Shen Yue asked rhetorically.

"This sword has been with me for many years, you say I don't know it, tell me, who are you? Where did this sword come from? Lin Yuan looked at Lin Jia.

Unexpectedly, after Lin Yuan's confirmation, Lin Jia suddenly knelt on the ground and cried loudly: "Please also ask Lin Gongzi to save her husband!" ”

The sudden crying from upstairs scared Zhao Gongzi, what did he do? Why are you crying so tragically. Wang Ming also looked at Zhao Gongzi like a dead man at this time.

"Hurry up, who is your husband? Get up and talk about it. Lin Jia's action really scared Lin Yuan, he had never seen this kind of battle.

wiped her tears with her hands, stopped crying, and said convulsively: "The little woman's name is Lin Jia, she is the young grandmother of the Shen family in Zhenjiang Mansion, and her husband's name is Shen Bin." ”

Hearing Lin Jia say that Shen Bin was his husband, Lin Yuan's heart sank, and he hurriedly said, "What happened to Shen Bin?" ”

"The eldest young master was framed, and now that Lin and Shen have both been imprisoned, I will wait to die to send the young grandmother out. The young master has explained, saying that he can ask you for help when he comes to Beijing. Shen Yue saw that Lin Jia was still crying, so he could only tell the reason by himself, and he was also observing Lin Yuan's reaction.

It seems that this Lin Yuan has some strength in Beijing, but I don't know if he is willing to offend the Xue family for the sake of the Lin and Shen families. When Lin Yuan heard that Shen Bin was framed and imprisoned, Lin Yuan asked, "Well, how could he be arrested?" ”

"Officials protect each other, and Feng Ning, the prefect of Zhenjiang, was instructed to do it." Lin Jia said.

"I'll send someone to write a letter first and ask what's going on, and you two will be at ease." Lin Yuan put Lin Jia in his seat and persuaded: "Sister-in-law, don't worry, Brother Shen is my life-saving benefactor, and I will never let him be wronged." ”

"Young Master Lin, it is the Xue family that our two families have offended." Shen Yue said.

"The Xue family? Is the Xue family in southern Henan? What are they doing in Jiangsu and Zhejiang? Lin Yuan frowned, how could Shen Bin offend the Xue family? After thinking about it, he had no clue, so he could only say: "Don't care about these things for now, look at the two of you, I'm afraid that someone has been intercepted and killed on the road, Shen Bin is not safe in Zhenjiang Mansion at the moment, save his life first and then talk about other things." ”

Shen Yue had been injured, and from the inconvenience of entering the door, Lin Yuan could also guess something. Greeted Li Xiandao and arranged for the two to live first, it was really inconvenient to keep female guests in his house.

After persuading the two, Lin Yuan rushed back to the house. He needs to know whether his family has a useful relationship in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, and Uncle Lin knows these things best.
